This problem is caused by control characters (e.g., 0x02) appearing in some tag values. These characters are not legal in the XML data that the server sends to the control point and this is why the control point isn't handling this album correctly. The next release of MinimServer will check for these characters in tag values and ignore any such tag values (with a warning message).

Thanks very much for reporting this problem and helping me find out what caused it!

Great stuff Simon !
I'm just most grateful that you have been so willing to help resolve the issues which I have experienced, the least I can do is follow through with as detailed reports as I can offer from the perspective of a layman :-)

I've also relayed your technical feedback to both the developer of Yate and the MiND control point software so that each of you may have some further insights as to the causes of end user issues, and thus may be better equipped to resolve or prevent them from recurring in future iterations of your relevant software packages.

Thank you very kindly indeed
